The counterculture movement had seized the young people with bright colors and ideas of world peace and harmony; there was a rise in the feminist movements in how women worked, dressed, and began to view themselves as more than wives and homemakers. Elizabeth II had been queen for ten years and her husband was still Prince Philip rather than King. No longer tied to the chic modesty of the 1950s, the 60s were like a new beginning. One of the most defining characters of the 60s were The Beatles. Originating from British skiffle bands that developed from post World War II jazz musicians, The Beatles rose quickly to fame and even had full length movies, such as A Hard Day’s Night and Yellow Submarine. Considered one of the greatest bands ever, their music defined the 60s and spread globally in a British Beatlemania. According the historian Hardeep Phull, “The Beatles were so great because of something called 'skiffle' Without skiffle music, The Beatles might not have happened. Never heard of it? Popular in Britain in the 1950s, the music craze was heavily influenced by old American blues and jug band music, and often played on improvised instruments.” So influential were The Beatles that Men’s fashion had been based on them, including neat suits, bowl cuts, and thin ties; later, bold patterns, colorful suits, and statement jewelry would also come from the band’s style. The 1960s had a dark side as well in England. There had been increases in gang activity and organized crime, but none were so notorious than The Kray Twins. The Kray Twins, Ronald and Reginald, were notoriously violent nightclub owners, local celebrities, and crime lords from London. Both were incredibly charming, likable, and prosperous as well as terrifying, manipulative, and prone to violent outbursts. Ronald supposedly had a sexual relationship with conservative politician Lord Boothby and came out as bisexual. When arrested, there was public outcry to release them with the movement and vetoed.

  • Macbeth in Performance
    SYDNEY STUDIES Macbeth in Performance DEREK PEAT AND TIM FITZPATRICK At first sight, there is no apparent connection between Alan Ayckbourn, one of Britain's most popular contemporary dramatists, and Shakespeare. However, the bond of popularity may help account for the fact that Ayckbourn's work experience illuminates Shakespeare's practice. Here is Ayckbourn writing about the composition of his trilogy, The Norman Conquests: I was aware that it would be optimistic to expect an audience ... to give up three nights of their precious holiday to come to our one theatre ... The plays would therefore have to be able to stand independently ... Second ... it should be possible to see them in any order. Third, since we could only afford six actors, they should have that number of characters. Fourth, ideally they should have only two stage entrances since that's the way our temporary Library Theatre set-up is arranged (but then this is common to all my plays). There were other minor pre-conditions peculiar to this venture. The actor I had in mind to play Norman couldn't join us for the first few days of the season-which necessitated him making a late first entrance in one of the plays (Table Manners) to facilitate rehearsals. If this all makes me sound like a writer who performs to order, I suppose it's true. I thrive when working under a series of pre-conditions, preferably when they are pre-eonditions over which I have total control.l Ayckbourn manages the small theatre-in-the-round in the resort town of Scarborough where he premieres his work, and consequently has his poten­ tial audience and financial stringencies in mind as he creates.

  • The Evolution of Musical Theatre Dance
    Gordon 1 Jessica Gordon 29 March 2010 Honors Thesis Everything was Beautiful at the Ballet: The Evolution of Musical Theatre Dance During the mid-1860s, a ballet troupe from Paris was brought to the Academy of Music in lower Manhattan. Before the company’s first performance, however, the theatre in which they were to dance was destroyed in a fire. Nearby, producer William Wheatley was preparing to begin performances of The Black Crook, a melodrama with music by Charles M. Barras. Seeing an opportunity, Wheatley conceived the idea to combine his play and the displaced dance company, mixing drama and spectacle on one stage. On September 12, 1866, The Black Crook opened at Niblo’s Gardens and was an immediate sensation. Wheatley had unknowingly created a new American art form that would become a tradition for years to come. Since the first performance of The Black Crook, dance has played an important role in musical theatre. From the dream ballet in Oklahoma to the “Dance at the Gym” in West Side Story to modern shows such as Movin’ Out, dance has helped tell stories and engage audiences throughout musical theatre history. Dance has not always been as integrated in musicals as it tends to be today. I plan to examine the moments in history during which the role of dance on the Broadway stage changed and how those changes affected the manner in which dance is used on stage today. Additionally, I will discuss the important choreographers who have helped develop the musical theatre dance styles and traditions. As previously mentioned, theatrical dance in America began with the integration of European classical ballet and American melodrama.

  • Program Notes
    “Come on along, you can’t go wrong Kicking the clouds away!” Broadway was booming in the 1920s with the energy of youth and new ideas roaring across the nation. In New York City, immigrants such as George Gershwin were infusing American music with their own indigenous traditions. The melting pot was cooking up a completely new sound and jazz was a key ingredient. At the time, radio and the phonograph weren’t widely available; sheet music and live performances remained the popular ways to enjoy the latest hits. In fact, New York City’s Tin Pan Alley was overflowing with "song pluggers" like George Gershwin who demonstrated new tunes to promote the sale of sheet music. George and his brother Ira Gershwin composed music and lyrics for the 1927 Broadway musical Funny Face. It was the second musical they had written as a vehicle for Fred and Adele Astaire. As such, Funny Face enabled the tap-dancing duo to feature new and well-loved routines. During a number entitled “High Hat,” Fred sported evening clothes and a top hat while tapping in front of an enormous male chorus. The image of Fred during that song became iconic and versions of the routine appeared in later years. The unforgettable score featured such gems as “’S Wonderful,” “My One And Only,” “He Loves and She Loves,” and “The Babbitt and the Bromide.” The plot concerned a girl named Frankie (Adele Astaire), who persuaded her boyfriend Peter (Allen Kearns) to help retrieve her stolen diary from Jimmie Reeve (Fred Astaire). However, Peter pilfered a piece of jewelry and a wild chase ensued.

    For 200 million years the Dinosaurs ruled the earth Now, they’re back to roam the arenas of America in an extraordinary new theatrical production WALKING WITH DINOSAURS The Live Experience Based on the award-winning BBC Television Series WALKING WITH DINOSAURS – The Live Experience comes to North America on a two-year tour September 30, 2007 --- Dinosaurs return to the earth in a live theatrical arena show, WALKING WITH DINOSAURS – The Live Experience , based on the award-winning BBC Television Series. After playing for ten sold-out weeks in five cities in Australia, WALKING WITH DINOSAURS – The Live Experience is now on tour in North America for two years. 350,000 Americans have already seen the production since it opened in July 2007. WALKING WITH DINOSAURS – The Live Experience is brought to North America by Immersion Edutainment , headed by Bruce Mactaggart. Mactaggart said, “The BBC Series was a brilliant blend of special effects, escapism, excitement and information. Our show has that -- and it’s live. In this show, fifteen roaring, snarling “live” dinosaurs mesmerize the audience – and are as awe-inspiring as when they first walked on earth.” Mactaggart continued, “This is a show that could only fit in arenas – as the creatures are so absolutely immense in size. Audiences seated in the lower seats are all but overwhelmed by the dinosaurs, while those seated in higher seats can view the entire spectacle and panorama of the production. It is the closest you’ll ever get to experiencing what it was like when they walked and ruled the earth.” For more information, please visit www.dinosaurlive.com .
